Retention Strategies CANCELLED

When: Wednesday, November 18, 2009 | 01:00 PM-03:00 PM
Where: UL 1125M

Facilitator: Beverylyn Grace-Odeleye, assistant professor/director of the Act 101 Prorgram in the Department of Academic Enrichment and Learning at East Stroudsburg University of Pennsylvania

Why are first year students "at-risk"? Some first year students may be at-risk because of the lack of academic self-awareness and other attitudes related to self-efficacy. This Innovative Educators webinar will discuss proven strategies utilized in the retention efforts of first year at-risk college students. These strategies are effective interventions for academic success, as proven by a three year study. Participants will learn how to help first year at-risk students succeed at their institutions. Strategies discussed will include, but are not limited to, academic monitoring, self-assessment (including a reality check), developing a relationship with professors, utilization of journals, and tutoring.

This event is cosponsored by the Gateway to Graduation Program and the Center for Teaching and Learning.
